In 2024, Heartland's total carbon emissions amounted to approximately 697,610 kg CO2e. This figure includes 286,740 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, which are direct emissions from owned or controlled sources, and 46,030 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions, related to purchased electricity. The majority of their emissions, about 364,840 kg CO2e, fall under Scope 3, which encompasses indirect emissions from the value chain, with significant contributions from business travel (314,430 kg CO2e) and employee commuting (11,100 kg CO2e). Comparatively, in 2023, Heartland reported total emissions of approximately 924,760 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at 361,670 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions at 28,970 kg CO2e. Scope 3 emissions for that year were about 534,120 kg CO2e, again primarily driven by business travel (445,360 kg CO2e). Heartland has not publicly disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of their climate commitments. The absence of documented reduction targets suggests a need for further development in their sustainability strategy. The emissions data is sourced directly from Heartland Group Holdings Limited, with no cascaded data from a parent or related organization. Overall, Heartland's emissions reflect a significant footprint, particularly in Scope 3 categories, indicating potential areas for improvement in their climate strategy.
